Configuration of directories in the card

* Up to 9,999 files can be stored in folder 100SANYO. If more files are made, a folder named 101SANYO is created, and they will be stored in there. New folders will then be named in sequence, i.e., 102SANYO, 103SANYO, etc.

HINTAbout the volume namei The volume name will be [XACTI] for a card that was formatted with the

camera, [XACTI_INT] for the camera’s internal memory, and [Removable disc] for a card that was formatted with a computer.

About video clip data recorded with this camerai You can use Apple’s QuickTime to play back video clips on a computer.

may be possible using software that supports the ISO standard MPEG-4 (AAC audio).

About file names when the card is replaced...i If the file number memory function is set to on, even when the card is

replaced, consecutive numbering of folder numbers and file names continues from the previously installed card (see page 141 in the camera’s instruction manual).

CAUTIONIf you intend to view the images on the camera, do not use a computer to rewrite the card datai If the folders, file names, or their configuration is modified using a personal

computer, it will be impossible to play back the data using the camera, and the camera may not operate properly.

ABOUT Photoshop Album SEWith Photoshop Album SE you can quickly and easily organize large numbers of photos. It’s easy to find the photos you’re looking for and share them with friends.

k Import dataWhen you connect your camera to a computer using the dedicated USB interface cable, it is immediately detected by the system and the camera’s internal data is imported by Photoshop Album SE and at the same time copied to the computer. Data stored on the computer’s hard disk or on a CD-ROM or DVD etc. can also be imported by Photoshop Album SE.

k Search for files in the computerData that was copied to the computer is scattered over various locations when it is saved. Photoshop Album SE can search through all the data in the computer and find the specific data you’re looking for to easily import it. Removable media (DVDs etc.) and data on the network drive (if the computer is connected to a network) are not searched.

k Data is displayed in a thumbnail areaData imported to Photoshop Album SE is displayed in the thumbnail area as thumbnail images. The thumbnail display mode can be adjusted by dragging the slider that is below the thumbnail area. In addition, with Photoshop Album SE, the thumbnail area catalog can be rearranged in a variety of ways. k Organize photos by their labelsData in the Photoshop Album SE thumbnail area is automatically organized based on the date and time it was recorded, but by using the “label” function, you have access to advanced features to organize, sort, preview and search the data. “Labels” are like keywords that you can assign to the data. Assigning labels does not change the data itself in any way, but it provides more flexibility and ease in searching and organizing your data.

English 22

k Organize data into collectionsA collection is like a container in which you put data. You can use the thumbnail area to drag and drop data in the desired order into a collection. The order is indicated by a number displayed for each data. Unlike with labels, photos in a collection can be displayed in the order you specify.

k Image editingUse Photoshop Album SE to edit your imported photos with functions such as rotate, clipping, and brightness and sharpness adjustment.

k Create PDF slideshowsIn a PDF slideshow, photos are automatically displayed in a specified order. Slideshows are ideal for sharing photos in your emails or for displaying photos on your computer screen.
